Still in parts accumulation money saving mode (still yes i know why is it taking so long)
I have all the major stuff basically just about other than bodywork.( i think bert should be able to help there)
the crank and the cylinder is going to be ubber expensive. (alloy sleeve nicksil and destroked) but hopefully long lasting.
Wobs wanting to send the motor down for fitting so the pipe center-lines can be done.
I will have to pull finger cause the progress is f-ing slow and need a good kicking.

Mate if there is room I will stuff them in my suitcase and then mail them to you once in NZ next Feb Can't guarantee this as the airlines are very strict on luggage weight. Or if you want them sooner it will be $25USD to mail them from here. Let me know what you want to do.
I know its not a bucket, but it took me a long time to get it to this stage. Vote for it for picture of the week and make my day!
1934 Coventry Eagle, 247cc Two stroke. I may have to sleeve it down for buckets! Apparently they used these things in the old wall of deaths back in the 1930's (must have had rocks in their heads).
Photo taken in the GPRNZ Workshop (Grinding division!).

Stock is best
